Encounters with Aliens on this Day

June 21

1947 - Harold A. Dahl, his son, and others on board a boat
allegedly saw six donut-shaped objects, 30 meters in diameter, metallic
with dark openings, over a bay next to Maury Island on Puget Sound,
Washington. One of the UFOs exploded, showered the witnesses with a
slag-like metal. This case has been widely regarded as a hoax because of
some deliberate deception of UFO investigator Kenneth Arnold by a shadowy
con man named Chrisman who claimed to have been involved, but there are
still unexplained elements to this case. (Source: Jacques Vallee,
Confrontations: A Scientist's Search for Alien Contact, p. 47).

1947 - Eight disc-shaped objects the size of a house were seen
flying at 1,000 kph at 11:55 a.m. in Spokane, Washington. A woman
stated that the objects fell with a falling leaf motion and landed before
ten witnesses on the shore of the Saint Joe River, in Idaho. (Sources:

Passport to Magonia: A Century of Landings, p. 191).

1952 - At 11:00 p.m. that night at the Oak Ridge,
Tennessee nuclear facility a radar target was picked up and later
sighted as a featureless nocturnal light over the AEC site by a member of
the Ground Observer Corps. The light eluded an F-47 fighter sent to
investigate it, flying at 8,000 feet altitude. (Source: Edward J. Ruppelt,
The Report on Unidentified Flying Objects, p. 43).

1954 - Mr. and Mrs. Guy Baker saw a hovering, domed disc-shaped
object in Ridgeway, Ontario. It was about 14 meters in diameter (40
feet) and had several rotating, flashing lights around the rim. They drove
their car to get a closer look. The object crossed the road in front of
the car and landed in a field. The car stalled and they had to push it
because it would not re-start, although it had never given them trouble
before the incident or since. They watched as the lights moved around in
the area. They found a large, brown, circular spot in the pasture where
the disk had been resting. (Sources: Gregory Falla, BUFORA Vehicle
Interference Report, p. 6; Mark Rodeghier, UFO Reports Involving
Vehicle Interference, p. 2, case 9).

1956 - At 10:35 p.m. a group of boy scouts and their scoutmaster
sighted several silvery discs in the southeastern sky near Homestead,
Pennsylvania maneuvering at high speed among the clouds. (Sources:

September 1956, p. 3; Richard F. Haines, Project Delta: A Study of
Multiple UFO, p. 186).

1958 - A two meter in diameter orange ball of fire was sighted
by many at 7:15 a.m. over Chenxi County, Hunan Province, China. It
was spinning out a cloud of smoke. It made a 120 degree turn near a
school, and left behind a smell of ozone in the air. (Source: Wendelle
Stevens and Paul Dong, UFOs over Modern China, p. 37).

1962 - At 4:00 a.m. Lt. Col. H. King and his tail gunner M/Sgt.
Roberts, aboard a B-52 heavy jet bomber flying over Indianapolis,
Indiana sighted three bright, star-like flying nocturnal lights. The
first was seen, and then ten seconds later two more were spotted. The
total sighting lasted three minutes. (Sources: Project Blue Book files
counted in official statistics, case # 7957; Don Berliner, Project
Bluebook UFO Unknowns).

1962 - Many residents of La Plata, Argentina phoned the
police and the newspapers on this night to report a red cigar-shaped UFO
over the city, flying around in circles at great speed. The object would
disappear and reappear, giving off red flashes. (Source: Gordon Creighton,
Flying Saucer Review, July-August 1964, p. 10).

1965 - An unidentified submarine object (USO) was sighted by a
pilot flying east of Fraser Island, off Maryborough, Queensland,
Australia at 11:30 a.m. It was long, thin, and metallic looking and
just under the surface of the ocean. It submerged out of sight when the
plane flew over. (Source: APRO Bulletin, January-February 1966, p.
8).

1965 - A disc with a blinking red light was seen for 20 minutes
in Chesaning, Michigan starting at 9:30 p.m. It appeared to land
remotely. (Source: APRO Bulletin, January-February 1968).

1967, Cordoba, Argentina - Four days
prior of a massive wave of UFO sightings in the region, a man dressed in
black showed up at the newsroom of Cordoba's Los Principios daily
newspaper, where he dropped off a letter addressed to the editor stating
that before the week was out the Southern Cone would experience a massive
flyover involving hundreds of extraterrestrial craft. The day before the
sightings began, the newspaper received a phone call stating, "Attention,
it will begin at any moment..." (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid
Contact Database 1967, case # 3186, citing Dr. Rafael Lara).

1967 - Mr. and Mrs. Larsen recalled being abducted on this night
by aliens while driving on a New Mexico highway. (Source: R. Leo
Sprinkle, investigator, in David F. Webb & Ted Bloecher, HUMCAT:
Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case A2081).

1968 - A man riding his bicycle in Miramar, Argentina encountered a large object moving only 50 centimeters above the ground. At 1:30 a.m. the domed, disc-shaped object flew extremely low, nearly hugging the ground, and traveled from north
to south while illuminating the ground with a vertical beam of
red light. The top of the object appeared to be spinning. It suddenly
increased in speed and left. Calcination traces were
found by police. (Sources: Jacques Vallee, Passport to Magonia: A Century of Landings, case # 911, citing Lumieres dans la Nuit, issue # 95; Oscar A. Uriondo, FSR Case
Histories, August 1973, p. 10).

1968 - At 9:00 p.m. in Revere, Massachusetts the
witness's cat ran off and the dog howled. An orange ball of fire slowly
descended toward a maple tree. It wobbled, gave off white trail of vapor,
accelerated away, then broke into many sparks.(Source: Raymond E. Fowler,
UFOs: Interplanetary Visitors, p. 353).

Revere, Massachusetts - 1968

1970 - Paul Foster, in the St. Helliers section of
Auckland, New Zealand, saw a figure about 20 yards away
from him while working on a car. It was facing in the opposite direction.
Viewed from the rear, the humanoid was about 5'9" tall and wore a
one-piece blue coverall, the legs of which were tucked into mud covered
boots. The man carried a leather case on his left hip attached to a strap
over his right shoulder, and was holding a box-like object to his face
with a periscope like extender sticking out and up to the right side. This
periscope device was pointed away from the observer to the north, toward
the sun. The figure was blond with short-cropped hair. He walked dragging
his feet, as if fatigued. Foster glanced away thinking it was perhaps a
mailman, but when he realized it was Sunday, he knew this could not be.
When he again looked up the figure had gone. Foster rushed out in search
of him but could find no trace. (Source: David F. Webb and Ted Bloecher,
HUMCAT: Catalogue of Humanoid Reports, case 1970-1, citing Vic
Harris for the New Zealand Scientific Space Research Group, Auckland).

1971 - A 50-foot diameter disc was seen hovering overhead on
this night in Pinehurst, Idaho. It directed a beam of light down
upon two witnesses, who experienced over two hours of missing time and
subsequently recalled an abduction experience. They also had unexplained
body marks on their limbs. (Source: Larry Hatch, U computer database, case
9308 citing Paranet).

1976 - At 9:15 a domed disc shaped UFO was seen at treetop level
in Rome, Italy. It had a transparent cupola bubble on the bottom.
It moved out of sight behind some buildings. (Source: Maurizio Verga,
Italian UFO Catalogue).

1976 - An hour and a half later two 5 meter wide discs were seen
hovering silently in Le Conquet, France. They moved away and then
came back extremely quickly. (Source: Jean-F. Boedec, Les OVNI en
Bretagne: Anatomie d'un Phenomene, p. 79).

1977 - On this day a 10 meter long silver cigar shaped object
followed two people riding on a motorcycle between Salford and Bury,
England. It replicated all of their turns and was completely
silent. It finally flew off behind a house. (Source: FSR, August
1978, p 10).

1980 - In Assumption, Illinois at 1:30 a.m. Ms. McLeod
reported that two low flying, slow orange colored domed discs circled and
hovered for five minutes while directing a beam of light toward the
ground. There was an unnatural quiet and the witness's dog never barked
during the sighting. Two minutes after the UFO left natural sounds
returned to the area. (Source: International UFO Reporter, August
1980, p. 14).

1984 - A large, slow V-shaped craft passed low over a radio
tower in Hyde Park, New York at 8:00 p.m. It had headlights and
made a faint humming sound. (Source: MUFON UFO Journal, October
1984).

1986 - Two years later another series of sightings occurred on
this evening in the Hudson Valley area. This time delta shaped objects and
lights were reported in Westchester County, New York. (Source: J.
Allen Hynek, Philip Imbrogno, and Bob Pratt, Night Siege: The Hudson
Valley UFO Sightings, p. 201).

1996 - On this night Cesar Miglioranza, age 64, was driving his
car home from work outside of Flexeiras, Brazil when he noticed a
strong light in a nearby field. He stopped his car and got out to
investigate. As he approached he saw a large object on the ground next to
some trees. Suddenly he became paralyzed and unable to move. Beside the
object were two short beings with large heads and long arms. They wore
helmets and tight fitting silvery uniforms. The two humanoids appeared to
be collecting soil samples from the ground. After a few moments, they
conversed among themselves in an unknown language, then boarded the
object, which quickly took off at high speed. Cesar was unable to move for
the next five minutes. Afterwards he felt very tired and sleepy for 2 to 3
days. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact Database 1996, case #
3545, citing Victor Lourenco).

1998 - At around midnight a man named Augustin was walking his
dogs in Ulldemolins, Terragona, Spain alongside an isolated field
when he noticed a bright light to his left. A bright white rotating light
approached and disappeared towards the nearby road, apparently coming down
to land. The witness heard a moderate humming sound. Suddenly the light
went dark and two humanoids became visible. They were both walking on the
road toward him. The beings wore fluorescent helmets and boots and
tight-fitting silvery outfits, but no other details were visible. His dogs
began barking in an agitated manner. Terrified, the witness and his dogs
ran in the opposite direction, not looking back at the humanoids. The
night before this close encounter another local witness had seen a white
light hovering over a house. (Source: Albert S. Rosales, Humanoid Contact
Database 1998, case #3340, citing Josep Guijarro, Karma-7 #295).

1999 - Three separate witnesses reported a black triangular
craft with red and yellow flashing lights flying over Nicholasville,
Kentucky at 12:15 a.m. A bright light was also seen passing in
front of the moon. (Source: Peter Davenport, National UFO Reporting
Center, Seattle).

2004 - A saucer shaped object with bright red lights was seen in
Richmond Hill, New York at 9:30 a.m. (Source: Peter Davenport,
National UFO Reporting Center, Seattle).
